try
 $Conf{RsyncShareName} = '/domus/support';

It's not clear how this helps solve my problem. 

As I indicated above, I need to backup other directories on 
other machines.

If I make the change you suggested, i.e., edit config.pl to read

   $Conf{RsyncShareName}='/domus/support'

then I'll be unable to backup my directory /domus/ken which is on 
another machine.

In fact, I won't be able to backup any other directory regardless of 
which machine it was on.

[BackupPC-users] backing up a particular user

2007-09-24 Thread Simpson, Kenneth

Hi - I'm trying to backup a single user directory on Linux (SLES 9) 
using version 2.1.3 of BackupUP and rsync - but it's backing up all 
all the directories on the source disk starting at the beginning of 
the alphabet.

I just need to backup the directory /domus/support - and not any of 
the other directories. 

I have to do similar cherry picking on a couple of other machines.

Here is my hosts file entry:

  hostdhcpusermoreUsers # --- do not edit this line
  linws7   0  support   # --- example static IP host entry

and here's the rsync share from config.pl:

  $Conf{RsyncShareName} = '/domus';

Any help would be appreciated.
